Olympus PEN E-PL5

Full Review

Olympus, one of the originators of the Micro Four Thirds format, has refined its mirrorless system over the past five years. What started with a single camera, the PEN E-P1, soon grew into three product lines (PEN Lite and Mini) along with a mature selection of lenses (not to mention plenty of adapters for new and old lens mounts). Today, we're in the middle of a mirrorless renaissance and it's fair to say that Olympus's retro-styled PEN series paved the way.
